ACA (Anterior cingulate area) functionally connects to CEA (Central amygdalar nucleus)
All claims for this connection- Species
- Mouse
- Result
- absent
- Method
- optogenetic circuit mapping
- Sign
- unknown
- Evidence
- Optogenetic stimulation of ACC terminals produced no detectable PSPs in any of the CeA cells recorded, including CeA cells in the same slices where BLA cells responded.

- Named in the paper
- “ACC” and “CeA”
- Made by
- an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
- Checked by
a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“None of the CeA cells tested in the wild-type ChR2 recordings showed light-evoked PSPs, including cells in the same slices as responding BLA cells.”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
